“A comprehensively researched historic document on one year’s
activities for the 9th Cav and the 1st Cavalry Division, worthy of
gracing their unit libraries. That the book simultaneously succeeds
on the individual soldier level makes it a standout for any reader
with an interest in the airmobile aspect of the Vietnam War.” -
Vietnam Magazine The Gunner and the Grunt is written in the voices
of two soldiers who fought in the same battles as members of the
same recon unit but from different angles. Michael Kelley, the
“Gunner,” was flying in an armed helicopter above the jungle
providing suppressive fire support, while Peter Burbank, the
“Grunt,” was down in the jungle on foot patrol involved in fire
fights with Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army troops. The book
follows these two Boston boys from army training through deployment
to the war zone and the shock of first combat missions, to
helicopter air assault “Search and Destroy” operations from the
Cambodian border to the sands of the South China Sea.

and relational experience and dispels common myths about intimacy.
The final conversation illuminates unexpected spaces for intimacy
to emerge and surprising ways to be intimate in personal
relationships. Developed to broaden readers' understanding of this
critical aspect of personal relationships, Intimate Spaces is an
ideal text for relationship-based courses and all those interested
in developing their understanding of this essential facet of
interpersonal communication.
